here
H= depth of head
A = distance between saddle to
R = Radius of wear plate
Q = greater of Q1 or Q2 L = tan to tan distance
Longitudinal Q1 Q = total load per saddle.
Wo = operating weight of vesse
FL = Longitudinal force due to w
B = disance from centre of vess
Ls = distance between saddle.
Ft = transverse force due to win
Transverse Q2 K1-9 = cofficient factor
r = Radius of shell
ts = shell thickness
tw = thickness of wear plate
